SR-76/US 79 - Carroll County

From Cades-Atwood Road near the Gibson County line to near Sydnor Road in McKenzie.

Project Description

The project involves the widening and realignment of State Route 76/US 79.

These design features may be included in this project:

Widening SR-76 from a two-lane highway to a divided four-lane highway

Realigning SR-76 to the southeast of Atwood and Trezevant

Widening SR-76 to a five-lane highway to connect with the existing five-lane in McKenzie

The purpose of this project is to improve SR-76 from Milan, Gibson County to McKenzie, Carroll County. The total project length is 12.6 miles. The proposed project alignments are a result of a concerted effort to maximize safety, reduce adverse human and environmental impacts, and increase traffic capacity.

This project has been broken down into three smaller projects. Section 1 begins at Cades-Atwood Road near the Gibson County line and ends at SR-77. Section 2 begins at SR-77 and ends at Cutlip Lane. Section 3 begins at Cutlip Lane and ends at Sydnor Road in McKenzie.
